Being stranded with a dead cellphone and no means to charge it has to be a universally nerve-racking experience. And given how attached we are to our phones, which quite literally hold everything we need, portable chargers are a worthy and necessary investment that can really help you out in a pinch (or even in emergencies).

If you still have not added a portable phone charger to your existing collection of gadgets, then you might not be familiar with how saturated and overwhelming the phone bank landscape can be. While most are very intuitive and straightforward, travel phone chargers are not all created equally and possess different milliamp hours (mAh), charging speeds, connection ports and other diversifying features. Many can even power up more than just your phones but also laptops, Bluetooth headphones and more.
